Hopefully you're aware of "China's Firewall" that censors and controls the Internet within China, but how would you like that idea to be worldwide? Hold on to your seat, governments and corporations are trying their best for that to be a reality.

Here's a video that can elaborate

Wether you think this is a big deal or not, it does tamper with basic rights, and that should always be a big deal.

Go play the demo of Darth Kiwi's Vigilance in Work in Progress. The world will become more and more automated, but in turn we will lose additional rights and privacy. Also, due to abuse of 'freedom' (including internet piracy, the use of the internet for terroristic purposes ect.) we will see increasing policing on the internet and eventually, we will probably see legal punishments that include you being disconnected for the internet.

If that, for any case, was directed at my reply: my reply is just an expectation of what will happen - not a conspiracy theory.
